Digital is certainly more time-efficient for me, which means I spend more time taking pictures and less time staring at a sweep clock, or more time at home and less time at work. This might arguably have improved my life. I can't as easily say it's improved my PHOTOGRAPHY. In many ways professional photography is only tangentially about actual photography. DJE
